Got this order at work today, which made me double take and give a good laugh. Funny idea to think the Kremlin decided to order from my shop.

Got a coin today in the tip jar. As far as I know, there has never been a colored version of this coin, and I couldn't find anything about one being stylized like this. I'm guessing this was post-mint work, though I can't fathom why or how it ended up in a tip jar.

Finally have an entire day off tomorrow, and the majority of it is going to be going over this pivotal book. In over half the English sources regarding this moment, this is mentioned as the book to study. What I find most interesting is that the author is almost entirely forgotten.
